Abstract:
Huge quantities of construction wastes, demolition, and electronic wastes are being generated these days in many of the countries and the disposal of them has become a serious problem. This study is an integrated experiment in which different combinations of e-wastes and recycled coarse aggregate together are used as a substitute of conventional aggregate. Recycled aggregates from site-tested concrete specimens were collected and are integrated with the e-waste by altering the proportions of these wastes. The compressive strength of M20 mix designed is assessed by casting cubes and the flexural strength by prisms. This study is carried out to ensure the usage of integrated- waste and the recycled coarse aggregate as a replacement of coarse aggregate. Experimental study is carried out to find if the e-waste strips can be used as the reinforcement instead of steel. Results are checked against the standards of IRC to use for the sub-grade of the pavement
